Confederate States of America paper currency remains a widely collected area of American numismatics, providing collectors with tangible artifacts from the financial system established by a government that existed for only four years during the Civil War. Following the Confederacy’s military defeat and collapse, the notes issued by its Treasury ceased to hold legal monetary value, leaving surviving examples as historical objects associated with one of the most consequential periods in American history. This $5 CSA Note from 1864 has an impressive Choice Uncirculated grade from the Paper Money Guaranty (PMG) and an EPQ designation for its paper quality. Today, the 1864 $5 Confederate States of America Note is available at JM Bullion.
Note Highlights:
The 1864 $5 Confederate States of America Note is among the more commonly encountered issues in the broader Confederate currency series, making surviving examples relatively accessible to collectors interested in Civil War-era paper money. Its modest original denomination contributed to its use in circulation, while the number of notes that survived the period means collectors can still locate examples in a range of conditions and price levels. This availability can make the 1864 $5 note a practical starting point for individuals beginning a collection of Confederate currency.
This 1864 $5 Confederate States of America Note is available in Choice Uncirculated 62 condition with an EPQ designation. A Choice Uncirculated 62 note is one that was never released in general circulation and shows no folds in the design. Imperfections are minor and include issues such as counting smudges from sorting, slight fading, or slightly off-center alignment, the latter of which was common in Confederate currency, as many notes were hand-cut. EPQ refers to the condition of the paper in the note, identifying a piece with its original stiffness that is free from physical, chemical, or material processing.
The 1864 $5 Confederate States of America Note features a detailed vignette of the Virginia State Capitol in Richmond across the upper center of the design. As the seat of the Confederate government, the Capitol is depicted with careful architectural detail, presenting an image of governmental stability and authority. In the lower right is a portrait of Christopher G. Memminger, the Confederate Secretary of the Treasury who oversaw the nation’s finances during a period of severe inflation and mounting fiscal problems, making him an important figure in Confederate financial history. The reverse is printed in a vivid blue and features the word FIVE prominently at the center, accompanied by four large denomination numerals positioned in the corners.
